Once cooled, open the can, stir in vanilla and salt if desired, and transfer the dulce de leche to a jar.

Stir in brown sugar and cinnamon, cooking until sugar dissolves and the mixture becomes syrupy—about 2-3 minutes. Carefully add banana liqueur (if using) and stir. Add the sliced bananas to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the top. Cook for 1–2 minutes until the bananas are slightly softened but not mushy. Remove the skillet from direct heat. Slowly add rum to the pan. Using a long lighter, carefully ignite the rum to flambé. Allow the flame to burn off (about 30 seconds), swirling the pan gently.

Spanish Flan Classic Spanish Flan with Silky Caramel Topping Ingredients: 1 cup granulated sugar (for caramel) 1/4 cup water (for caramel) 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk 1 (12 oz) can evaporated milk 3 large eggs 1 tablespoon vanilla extract Pinch of salt Directions: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine sugar and water. Stir gently until the sugar dissolves, then allow it to boil without stirring until it turns deep amber in color, about 8–10 minutes. Carefully pour the hot caramel into the bottom of a round 8-inch cake pan or flan mold. Tilt to coat the bottom evenly. Set aside to cool and harden. In a blender, combine sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, eggs, vanilla, and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth. Pour the custard mixture over the hardened caramel in the pan. Place the filled pan in a larger baking dish. Pour hot water into the outer dish to create a water bath, reaching halfway up the sides of the flan pan. Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until the flan is set but slightly jiggly in the center. Let cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. To serve, run a knife around the edges of the flan and invert onto a serving plate, allowing the caramel to drizzle over the top.
